Song of Peach Blossoms: Alluring Princess

Chapter 105 Shen Yu's Plan

After Xiao Xuan read the report letter mentioned by Prime Minister Qiao, he found that there was no obvious place to find the whistleblower, and Prime Minister Qiao didn't mention a word, so he could only focus on the few witnesses who appeared so far.

The son of the deceased and the elder son-in-law knelt down timidly in the hall and shook their bodies, making Xiao Xuan feel for the first time that he had a ferocious face.

Lizheng in Yangshu Village looked at a lean old man who was black and not liuqiu, his back was straight and he was neither humble nor overbearing.

"Did the two of you come back and surrender?"

"Yes... yes, my lord."

"Talk one by one, you go first." Xiao Xuan pointed to the deceased's son, and swallowed his saliva, "Return to your lord. Cao Min came back and surrendered because of guilt and daydreams."

"Have you ever been to a private school?" Xiao Xuan asked without end, but stopped at the young man, who froze for a moment before shaking his head.Xiao Xuan showed a meaningful smile, he has never been to a private school, that means he is illiterate, and it is really rare to be able to speak well without being illiterate.

"My lord, the reason is the same for Caomin. Although I was only a leader at the time, I can't sleep every time I think about it. In addition, life in other places is really difficult, so Caomin came back with his family."

"Tell me how you killed your father-in-law?"

Like an endorsement, the eldest son-in-law recited the events of that day. The general situation was similar to what the deceased's wife said in the case file.Because he didn't want his mother-in-law to be bullied, he killed his father-in-law together with others. He was responsible for getting the deceased drunk, and then together they loaded the dead body on a cart and threw it into a dry well.

Ask the deceased's son again, he said that he found the rope himself, and then he hid out of the house because he was too scared.When I came back, I found that my father was dead.

Both of them talked about the killing process in a light-hearted manner, but they both shifted the responsibility to the second son-in-law, who was unable to be present, because he had died years ago.

Li Zheng clearly remembered that the children who had seen the deceased returned home that day a year ago.

"Why didn't you stand up when the guards were interrogating Yangshu Village?"

"This..." Li Zheng seemed a little embarrassed and tried to search his memory, and finally patted his head and said: "Caomin felt scared at the time, and forgot about it for a while, until someone came to the village to ask about this matter a few days ago." Caomin just remembered."

Xiao Xuan waved his hand and asked people to take them back. The timing of the appearance of the deceased's son and son-in-law and Li Zheng's long-term memory are too problematic.But now the facts are here, that is, someone with conscience found that the mother was jointly responsible for the murder.

"My lord, do you still want to interrogate the wife of the deceased?"

"No need, presumably even if she dies, she won't admit that her son and son-in-law have anything to do with murder."

Xiao Xuan thought for a while and stood up, "Go, visit Master Shen!"

Shen Yu was drinking tea and reading a book in the yard, when he saw Xiao Xuan, he bowed his hands to say hello.

"Your Majesty is here, I don't know why?"

"Master Shen has always been good at judgment, guess why this king came here."

"Presumably, the prince felt that the case was full of doubts, so he came to me to ask for clarification."

"Indeed, please enlighten Master Shen."

The two of them chattered wittily, Shen Yu usually didn't have time to greet people back and forth, he liked to be direct, but towards Xiao Xuan, he felt somewhat unjust.

"I only told the lord that this case was indeed committed by the deceased's wife alone, and that Lizheng was not credible. When the guards visited at the beginning, they did not hear that Lizheng mentioned the fact that the deceased's children had returned home. Neighbors on the left and right have never seen it."

"As for why he didn't remember that someone came again after a year, I don't know."

"The king went to see the deceased's wife in the prison. She was indeed short and weak. How could she strangle the deceased by herself and throw him into a dry well?"

"Who said she threw it all at once?"

What?Xiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Shen Yu meant, after all, there was no special record about the corpse in the autopsy records.

"Not once? Can't it be dismembered, then sewn up and thrown into the well?"

"The lord really wanted to go with the minister, but the woman's memory seems to have a problem, as long as she asks this question, she can't remember anything."

"Since you know the truth, why don't you write a note and tell the Holy One?"

"My lord, the truth is not important. The timing of finding out the case, the motivation of the deceased's child to turn himself in, and Li Zheng's inexplicably tampered memory, these are the important things."

"You want to use this king to find out the truth behind it?"

"Your lord, don't you want to know? Otherwise, why did you take the initiative to invite Ying?"

Shen Yu's words clearly stated that he asked for it himself. Although it was indeed such a thing, why it was so difficult for people to accept it happily when it came out of Shen Yu's mouth.

Xiao Xuan left from Shen Yu's house, thought all the way and finally came to the conclusion that he doesn't like people who are too smart, and obviously the other party doesn't like him either.What sympathy between heroes?Anyway, it doesn't exist for him.

Shen Yu did not go to see Xiao Xuan off, the breeze was blowing on his face, it should be a pleasure to drink tea and play chess at this time, but he really couldn't taste the fragrance of the tea.After much deliberation, this incomparably irritable mood was related to one person, so he simply pushed the teacup, and if the mountain didn't come, I would find it by myself.

Sixi shrank her head and looked outside the yard cleverly, then turned around and waved her hands at Lilac in the yard and dodged out.He first went around the market not far from Qingyang Lane, and finally bought some dried fruits from the Qianhuo Store, and finally walked out of the market to go home.

"Girl, this is what Ding Xiang asked me to give you." Sixi put the letter on the table and slipped out to bask in the sun and eat fruit.

The letter was written by Dai Sihai, and he wrote some things that Su Tiange wanted to investigate. After reading it, Su Tiange realized that there is no brazier here.She came back after burning the letter in the kitchen, turned around and saw Sixi sleeping with the fruit in her arms, so she went back to the house without disturbing her.

After taking two steps through the door and turning around to close the door, she was dragged into Shen Yu's arms. The hug was so boring that she struggled to raise her head.

"You're avoiding me." Shen Yu's deep voice had a hint of determination, but it was also a little annoyed. Strangely, Su Tiange only felt that she had lost all thinking ability in this voice, and she didn't even care how he found her.

"I……"

"If I don't even have the ability to protect myself, am I too useless?"

"You know?" Su Tiange looked at Shen Yu, his indifferent eyes shone brightly, and his star-like eyes slightly bent.

"I don't know anything, I only know that there is a girl who will be awkward because of me and is willing to hide all the secrets for me. I used to pretend that nothing happened because of the man's face, but I didn't expect that the girl has a bigger temper than me. The matter is over. , and I can't resist it, my lord has no choice but to accept it with a smile."

"Heavenly song."

"Ok?"

"I can only promise to save my life with my body."

Heh, after listening to this, Su Tiange only felt that his ears were burning, so he promised him with his body!This is probably the worst love story ever.
